MANILA — In the race for the remaining semifinal berths, Chery Tiggo faces off against F2 Logistics in a crucial showdown at the Philsports Arena.
With Creamline and Choco Mucho securing the first two Final Four spots, the competition intensifies as both teams vie for a chance to advance.
Currently holding a strong 7-1 record, Chery Tiggo aims to secure victory in the 6 p.m. match against F2 Logistics.
Meanwhile, Cignal, positioned fourth with a 6-3 card, seeks to edge closer to a semifinal slot against already-eliminated Nxled at 2 p.m.
The battle for survival ensues at 4 p.m. as Akari and PetroGazz, tied with idle PLDT in fifth place at 5-4, strive to stave off elimination.
The Chargers and the Angels face a critical juncture with their fate not entirely in their hands, trailing Cignal by a game.
Cignal, with 19 points, holds the first tiebreaker over PLDT (16), PetroGazz (16), and Akari (14). F2 Logistics, plagued by injuries and recent struggles, seeks redemption against a formidable Chery Tiggo, determined to derail their opponent’s winning streak.
The HD Spikers aim to rebound from a challenging 25-17, 19-25, 25-21, 22-25, 14-16 defeat to the Crossovers last Tuesday, setting the stage for an intense battle.
Meanwhile, Creamline and Choco Mucho have already secured Final Four berths, overcoming the Chameleons and High-Speed Hitters, respectively, on Thursday.
After beating Nxled, 25-23, 25-16, 25-21, Creamline needed a Choco Mucho victory over PLDT, 25-20, 23-25, 18-25, 25-17, 15-12, to formalize its entry.
As the competition heats up, teams are leaving no stone unturned in their quest for glory in the Premier Volleyball League Second All-Filipino Conference.
